… Or rather I haven’t.
My mobile phone charger has died after a long battle with “loose connection syndrome”. Last night it finally decided it was no longer going to charge the battery on my Nokia 6280, and no amount of twisting and adjusting of the cable would get it working. In the end, I pulled the plug on the damn thing – literally. It is now completely broken and in the bin, soon to be collected by the Bath & North East Somerset refuse team.
I’ve had a mobile phone for over seven years now, and this is one of the worst possible times for this to happen. Due to the flat move, I am receiving daily telephone calls from landlords, agencies, Sky, etc – it’s really maddening. To add to my frustration, I have a collection of OLD Nokia phone chargers, acquired over many years of Nokia phone ownership – NONE of these work.
Last night I ordered a replacement, it was late and I was very tired and extremely frustrated. I did something stupid. I ordered a charger for the Nokia 6230, not 6280. Now I have yet ANOTHER old style charger making its way to me in the post!
Luckily a colleague is allowing me to re-energise my phone with his charger. Hopefully that’ll give my mobile enough juice until the time I can order the correct charger and get it delivered. If not, blood will be spilt.
No trackbacks yet.

I decided to take the plunge and take out a new mobile phone contract, complete with a brand new Samsung S8! I've been told it's out for delivery today, and as my wife has a day off work, she'll be able to take it for me. Exciting times....
- The Samsung Galaxy S8
I regularly check the trends on Twitter. This is mainly to stay up to date with the latest news and find our who's died - it's basically a Births, Marriages and Deaths page for the famous. One trend that caught my eye this afternoon was Samsung Galaxy S8. My mobile phone is nearly three years old....
- A Shopping Trip
Yesterday, I made one of my rare trips into Bath city centre. One of the reasons I try to avoid town is because it is big, busy and full of annoying people. The first part of our visit involved going to the post office. Outside a group of Special Brew-drinking tramps had a fight over... - Sorry, Steve Jobs
Apologies to Mr Jobs, but I have joined the dark side. After over two and a half years on a SIM-Only plan, with a now ancient iPhone 4, I decided enough was enough and it was time to get something for my money – a new phone. Today, I ditched O2 and joined Vodafone (something... - Feeling Hot
... well, my iPhone is.
I think it may not be very well.

About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
